Color & Shape Matching

Children can match the blocks to the holes by matching color or shape. To get the blocks out of the Shape Sorter, just pull aside the elastic band and shake them out. All block shapes are filled with beads to provide children with some rattling fun when they're not busy developing their problem-solving, shape-sorting skills.

Hape Makes Toys for Children

Hape, (Hape pronounced hah-pay), founded by Peter Handstein, was established 26 years ago. In a short period of time it has become a household name known for a modern twist on classic wooden toys. Hape toys are designed first and foremost for children. Each product is developed to enhance a child's developmental skills. Neither language, nor culture, nor gender impedes intuitive play patterns. What children see as fun, parents and educators recognize as age-appropriate learning basics; social, sensory, physical, and emotional skills. Using natural materials, water-based paints, and strict quality and safety standards make every Hape toy an investment kids will love and parents can trust.

High Quality as Always from Hape

Rest assured, Hape products are carefully made of natural materials including wood from sustainably managed forests. The safety of children is extremely important to Hape as a manufacturer whose range of toys is inspired by children. That is precisely why they place such high standards on the careful selection and processing of materials in the development of their toys. They source top-of-the-line materials from responsible suppliers around the world including birch plywood from Russia and solid maple wood and water stain from Germany. All Hape products conform to toy testing as required by the ASTM (American Society for Testing and Materials) for the US and Canada. In fact, all toys also pass the strictest international standards of Europe and Japan, too.

what parents are saying

At 14 months, my son isn't very interested in this one. (Dec 29, 2014)

what parents are saying

Even if she can't yet put the pieces into the proper slot, she loves to shake the blocks and it's fantastic that the elastic ends to release the blocks also allows her to put them in that way!

My child is just now starting to figure this toy out. Each shape is color coded to match the side with the hole that it fits into. Great way to talk about colors & shapes & build spacial recognition.

Love that it's made out of wood, brightly colored, and each of the shapes have beads inside. We actually received it as a hand-me-down and it's still in perfect condition now on its second family!
